Red ribbon (authentication) of documents is now outdated as the Philippines joined last 2018 the
Hague Apostille countries´membership. Expired document is no good especially when it comes to migration requirements for employment. As long as you have your Transcript of Records from the registrar of your university you should proceed or any relative could to the DFA in Manila to have the apostille on your transcript or your college diploma. You can go to the Philippine Embassy in Riyadh and obtain a Power of Attorney for any relative in the Philippines to do the transaction for you!
Good luck!

It's a can of worms...

1. What is an Apostille and when do I need one?

An Apostille is a certificate that authenticates the origin of a public document. It is issued by a country that is party to the Apostille Convention to be used in another country which is also a party to the Convention.

3. In which countries does the Apostille Convention apply?

The Apostille Convention only applies if both the country where the public document was issued and the country where the public document is to be used are parties to the Convention. For the updated list of all "Apostille Countries," please visit this link:


4. What do I do if the country where I need to use my public document is not an Apostille Country?

By 14 May 2019, DFA-OCA will issue Apostille Certificates to all documents submitted for authentication. If your public document is to be used in a country where the Apostille Convention does not apply, you should contact the Embassy or Consulate of the country where you intend to use the document in order to find out what your options are. This usually means that you need to present your documents to the said country's Embassy or Consulate in the Philippines for its authentication/legalization.

In short, you need to take your docs to the Saudi Embassy/Consulate in The Philippines and ask them what you need to do..

You couldn´t have stated it better!

It is a lot easier now no red ribbon required only the apostille here in USA

That is the purpose of the Hague Apostille Convention - to make things easier for the citizens of signatory countries. Philippines and the US are members, so it saves a lot of time...

Does anyone know how a Filipina (residing in Philippines) gets her Guam divorce from her American ex-husband 5 years ago, Apostilled, so she can register the divorce in the Philippines?

If you have the divorce decree in possession, you have to send that decree to the responsible State
Dept in Guam to have the apostille. Then you can register that in the Philippines. Here´s one channeler
to help out and expedite the process.



Good luck!

Good day!

I wanted to ask about how we can process our marriage in philippine i am filipina and in relation with Egyptian nationality..
We are living together for almost a year here in Saudi Arabia and we wanted to processed our marriage as soon as possible. I read about ur comment in a site of Embassy thats why i am hoping and trying to get some help if you can guide us..
Thanks and expecting for your reply.
Best Regards..

Have you gotten married already in Saudi Arabia? If not, it´s better for YOU to get married in the Philippines. If you´re Catholic you can have a civil marriage or church if you so desire. No polygamy
allowed as in muslim countries. Living together without a  marriage in Saudi Arabia I believe is punishable by their laws.

If you marry in the Philippines your foreign husband to be needs a Certificate that he is not married to anyone else and is illegible to enter into a Marriage Contract - issued by his Consulate or Embassy in Manila or even Saudi Arabia...
